Cancer July 4th -- August 1st 2008

Here Comes The Sun
Sunday July 27th -- 25th Day of Cancer

We are in an incredibly important time. These are the days when the maximum level
of energy enters our planet. More energy is more responsibility. During the last days
of Cancer and the first days of Leo, we have a period of time know as The Three
Negative Weeks. Throughout the year, the universe's light is heavily filtered before it
reaches us.   Each month, the universe's light is filtered through a planet that
corresponds to that months astrological influence. For instance in April, we have the
influence of Aries and the filter is the planet Mars. The light of the universe is filtered
using the planet Mars. However, in November, Mars is also used as it relates to the
constellation of Scorpio. What this tells us is that the energy that enters our planet is
shared and split and diminished significantly during most of the year because ever
single month shares a celestial body filter. Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Mercury and Venus
all share two astrological signs a piece and thus dilute the light that enters the planet.
However, when we enter Cancer and Leo there is no filter. Cancer's partner is the
Moon and the Moon is only used for Cancer and Leo's partner is the Sun and is only
used for Leo. During Cancer and Leo the full power of the Moon and the Sun shine
on us. This is the true reason why this months bring warmer temperatures. However,
what is happening on a non-physical level? On a physical level the days are longer
and the weather is warmer, but what's happening non-physically? A great deal is
happening.   The energy is so massive that we all get spiritually sunburn during this
time and as a result these Cancer/Leo weeks are known to be "negative." Carolyn
Myss, medical intuitive, reminds us that our greatest fear is the speed in which our life
changes. This is Truth. We all work over time slowing the speed of change in our
lives. Why? Because spiritual change is the painful removal of the ego. We
all know that we love speed when it's about serving our egos. When we want
something we want it FedExd, Over Nighted, ASAP! But spiritual change is about
the sacrifice of our selfish ego nature, which we fight and delay with every chance we
get. We run after comfort and run away from any sacrifice. During these
negative weeks (July 20th to August 10th), time is sped up. The onset of spiritual
light always decreases the amount of earthly time, space and motion. Time, Space
and Motion is directly opposite to Heavenly and Divine speed and logic.   These
weeks everything is sped up. Usually there is a birthing process. When we look at
the creation of a child we have conception, usually a pleasant experience. Then we
have nine months of growth. Ending with an intense painful birth and then a joyful
manifestation. During these weeks, time is removed. And what we find is that we
go from conception straight to the pain of birth! This time is the time of
opposites. When you wish for good, you will seemingly get bad. When you wish for
bad you will get good. It's the removal of time that causes the illusions of these
opposites. What actually is occurring is the removal of the process. You conceive
the baby and the pain of birth is immediate. And the opposite is true, you go through
the pain of work and the pay-off is immediate. As a result of this intense energy,
many of us will find ourselves in an interesting predicament.   Most of us are use to the
slow dulling effects of time and as result, we are shocked during these weeks as we
are instantly experiencing the effects of our actions! These weeks can be filled of
misfortune and chaos more than usual for our actions are not buffered by time and our
instantly shown to us. Now, the opposite is also true. These weeks contain great
potential as well if we are willing to make sacrifices, engage in work and go against
our comfort zone.   These weeks have such burning energy that its recommended that
we do not sign any new contracts, we do not move, we do not marry, we do not buy
major purchases, avoid sun exposure, the swimming in the ocean and most
importantly we need to avoid anger, hatred and judgement of others. There is no
filter until August 11th, we must be our own filter using acts of love and sharing that
can filter the light through us as opposed to burn us. Good luck and be safe,
especially on August 10th. Try to lie low that day. No flying. No risk taking.   Have
a good a time as you pay attention to all the fruits of your actions!

Your Jewel Is In the Cave
Wednesday July 16th -- 13th Day of Cancer

Welcome to the new month of Cancer. The energy of these 30 days are connected
to the consciousness of the Moon. The sign Cancer is the only sign connected to the
celestial body of the Moon. What does this mean? Well this period can be very dark
just like the Moon can be very dark. The Moon is forever changing and its
connection to the Sun is fleeting, being full of its light only once every 30 days. We
know this as a "full moon". The Moon is a vessel. The Sun is the "stuff" that fills the
vessel. The problem is during these days of Cancer, we are really gonna have to earn
any light that comes to us. It won't be for "free". The Moons connection to the Sun is
always changing, there isn't a constant connection. Imagine if you are watching a
movie in the theatre and the film kept going on and off. It would be terrible.
Sometimes the film would be off for 20 minutes, then on for 10. This would ruin the
movie completely. This is our problem this month. We need to find a steady
connection. The secret to a steady connection is to get out of ourselves and be more
concerned with other people's welfare. Think of a pipe. If the end of the pipe is
closed no new water can enter.   If the end of the pipe is open and flowing, more new
water can come in. When we think of other's needs, we open that pipe and allow
more water (Light of the Sun) to enter us. This is the secret this month. The area of
your life that is most dark, is the area of life where you have not been choosing to
think of others (in this life or past life). Find the area of your life where you are in the
dark and there will be your jewel. There will be the correction you need to make.
Be like a pipe. Flow, give and share. The Moon will shine forever when it can
connect to the Sun.
